As most of you know, the air enters somewhere around the battery/headlight area and comes through the fender area to the air filter.This is better than engine compartment air but is it considered "cold air" ? Is there an improvement for this factory system?Thanks.

 

Yes it's cold air. under hood air is air that has gone through a hot radiator and condenser. Factory intakes flow more air than a stock or mild tuned engine will ever need.

 

Thanks Repairman54,that was my thought on it also.
